Karma To Burn – CRAZY TOUR STORIES

In this Crazy Tour Stories segment, the hard rock band, Karma To Burn, talk about some of their crazy moments from touring. You can check out the feature, after the break.

We always said we were going to tour til the wheels fell off the bus…and one time we had a tire fall off of a tour bus after some rough Romanian roads. That was one of the worst days we’ve had on tour, it was 6 a.m., snowing, and were stuck on the side of the road because of a poorly maintained you bus. It’s easy to take for granted having a good vehicle on tour. Touring bands push vans and busses to their limit. But we kept going.

Once our tour bus got stopped on the border of Serbia and Croatia, they wouldn’t let us into Croatia, we didn’t have the right paperwork. The promoter for the show drove his van to the border, picked us up, and as we were already 2 hours late, we drove as fast as possible to the show. Maybe the fastest I’ve ever driven for that long. When we arrived, the crowd was there and waiting, I think they started cheering when we got out of the van. We walked on stage, set up on some borrowed gear, and started our set within 10 minutes of showing up. It was a great night.
